If you've ever lost sleep thinking they might not put out another album, while debating if the celestial mechanics working on Cygnus hum "Into the Darkness" or just discuss the circumstances.

 

S.O.H. kicks ass BTW

Ha! Glass Prison is clearly an imposter! A spy in the house of Rush.

Lucas, methinks his world would come into focus if only he could 'begin the day with a friendly voice' or indeed find himself a 'companion unobtrusive'

Maybe his lyrical faux pas, happened because a 'tired mind become a shape shifter'

I'm getting outa here before the 'dragons grow to mighty, to slay with pen or sword'

Aaaaaggghhhh!!!

You know that you're a Rush fan when, no matter what disparaging remarks others say about your favourite band, it will never affect your love of the band.

You know you're a Rush fan when you refuse to rise to such criticism of one of the most seminal live albums of all time , believing the critic to be sadly mis-guided

You know you're a RUSH fan when you decide to " choose freewill " to post a reply upon a discussion not related to music!  

( A devoted RUSH fan here BTW  that just happens to dislike that particular live recording  )

You know you're a RUSH fan when you realize you've become a Centurion of Evil!

You know you're a RUSH fan when (cough cough) smoke rings fill the air (cough).

You know you're a RUSH fan when you're lit up like a firefly.

And you know you're a RUSH fan when Garton strikes the "Hemispheres" pose after taking a shower and you don't consider it particularly odd.

Until the black hole...

You know you're a Rush fan when you find yourself counting down the days until, and already own a calendar for, the year 2112.
